I'm feeling so much gratitude for the work I'm doing right now.
On Tuesday, I got the opportunity to co-direct & shoot with my producer/co-director buddy Pierre Jean Gonzalez on an immensely powerful piece that tackles gender & sexuality in Bomba.

Honestly, I think we know by now that it’ll take a combination of things to move forward from this. I’ve been trying to figure out a proper response to George Floyd’s murder - and the subsequent violence against more Black people - while even more Black people die from COVID-19 - and emotionally, I’m spent.
The most I can put my mind to right now is spotlighting community-based solutions that I learn about through my work. One of these, is something that directly relates to every New Yorker RIGHT NOW.

Here’s a film that I’m REALLY proud of: “Release.” I co-directed, edited and DP’d (director of photography) on it. And I was smart enough to ask for help from Katrina Reid (1st AD/ Production Manager), Dominik Czaczyk (Gaffer/2nd Camera) & Sultan Ali (Grip/2nd AC). After nearly two months of pre-production, we managed to turn two days of shooting into a masterpiece.

And that mass arrest didn’t just sweep up his neighbors… Thus began “The Immaculate Re-Conception of Kraig Lewis.”

In the 1980’s, Reagan’s “War on Drugs” put Crime in the driver seat of American politics. Tough on crime laws then came in the Clinton era, spurred on by politicians like then-Senator Joe Biden. Black and Latinx communities were hit the hardest; and the state of Michigan was no exception.

Back in 2017, I interviewed an artist by the name of Kyle Dion at Okay Space - the performance was one of a kind. Literally. It was the only acoustic version of his single, “Brown.” And the song had evolved so dramatically from the studio version, it was worth me scrounging through old files and contracts to see I had clearance to post it after a given amount. And thankfully, I did. So enjoy this ode to Black Love and Music.

Elliot Guilbe and I worked on this project about a year ago. It was for one of my favorite clients, Sharon Richardson, the president of Re-Entry Rocks. She runs a program that employs formerly incarcerated women as caterers and event planners. Elliot and I were tasked with shooting a video. Here’s the first version. The second one’s coming soon!
